When I "Detach" an attachment and save it elsewhere, why the attachment is always accessible in the mail?

I use Win 7 Home Premium OS. Thunderbird 31.7.0.
After "detach" an attachment and save it, the size of e-mail reflects the detachment. However, the size of attachments reflects the size of the original attachment and I can always access inside the TB. After I detach and then right click on the attachment, the 'Detach' and 'Delete' options are grayed out. Why is this? Is the accessory yet in TB?

Detach the attachments of the emails means replace the attachment with a link to it in the file system.
